The objective of this study is to contribute knowledge of vascular flora in lomas of Granados, Huaral province, Lima, Peru (UTM 18 L 256244 East-8737247 North) ranging from 200 to 800 meters above sea level and to record possible threats to the conservation. Field visits and botanical collections were conducted between august and november 2017. A total of 91 species were recorded, grouped into 35 families and 80 genera. The families with the greatest diversity were: Asteraceae (15 species), Solanaceae (10) and Poaceae (6). Twenty endemic species were registered for Peru. In 2017, the plant cover in lomas included 2402.3 ha, and in addition there are approximately 75.88 ha of mandarin crops in the lower part of the lomas. Five facilities for the raising of poultry are in operation and the presence of cattle and goats, pose significant threats to native plant cover.

barcode L 0052629) bears a specimen with seed cones, and is annotated "Herb. V. Royen" at the base of the sheet. It has two labels, one is annotated "Cedrus folio Cupressi, j media, majoribus baccis CBP. 487" handwritten by Van Royen, and the other is annotated "Cedrus folio cupressi major j fructu flavescente C.B.p." (this polynomial matches with the synonym cited by Linnaeus under J. phoenicea), and it was also annotated by Farjon on 10 March 1992 "Juniperus phoenicea L. j (syn.: J. lycia L., Sp. Pl. 1039. 1753) j (lectotype of J. lycia to be designated)". Both of these two specimens can be identified clearly as belonging to J. phoenicea.In the Burser Herbarium at UPS, there is a relevant sheet with material that is morphologically very close to Juniperus phoenicea: Herb. Burser XXV: 62 (UPS-BURSER), which bears a branch, and is labelled "An Cedrus folio Cupressi media aut minor Bauh. Aliquot milliaribus Monspelio in colle" (see also Juel in Nova Acta Regiae Soc. Sci. Upsal., ser. 4, 5: 122. 1923). Linnaeus's citation of the polynomial "Cedrus folio cupressi, media, majoribus baccis" from Bauhin's Pinax (l.c.) provides a link to the specimen Herb. Burser XXV: 62 (UPS-BURSER). In this case the specimen can also be identified as belonging to J. phoenicea. We have been unable to trace any further specimens of original material in the other Linnaean or Linnaean-linked herbaria.Finally, the illustration from Lobelius cited by Linnaeus ("ic. 221") in the protologue under the second synonym "Cedrus phoenicea altera plinii & theophrasti" is part of the original material. This image can be identified as belonging to Juniperus turbinata (with seed cones greater than J. phoenicea s.str.; see Lobelius's illustration on page 221 of J. phoenicea as "Cedrus Phoenicea media").
